"There's nothing concrete that says she's here," he said Wednesday. "This is just one lead we're investigating and we're trying to do it thoroughly to find her."
Muncy said information leads police to believe the park may have been one of the last places Coe was seen.
If authorities find nothing today, the search at the park will end, the sergeant said.
Police continue to have a person of interest in Coe’s disappearance, but investigators have not disclosed details about the person.
